I do not reside in Akure and I guess you are a local residence in that area , I am a traveller some times , you may get the wrong information. You could have acted civil but correcting me without throwing jabs.

What would it cost it to just correct without being rude??

Thanks noted. You are right the government has a lot to do.

collins07:

Op point of correction.Idanre is entirely different from Akure,is an independent town on his its own for thousand years.my grandfather was buried up there on that hill,u got almost d rest of information correctly.
We don't have a good tourism spirit in this part of d world hence Idanre would have be a good source of revenue for Govt.kudos for job well done in showcasing Idanre hills to d world��

carter Hills named after the Colonial Governor
Ajimoba Hill named after one of the ancient king trusted guard
Orosun Hill named after a great warriors daughter

Idanre is an ancient community that once resided in the hills of Idanre before they relocated to the lower part of the hill. The city is said to be over 800 years old. The city is located in the town of Akure. This city is known for its cultivation of cocoa an important raw material for beverages. The major occupation of the residence of this city is farming.. The city However moved down in 1923 to give way for civilisation.

Brown roof is a sign of poverty. Make money and change ur roof to modern roofs grin
No you are the impoverished one and an illiterate for not knowing that common knowledge! Well I can't blame you, your ancestors lived in the bush, so zinc roof was a luxury for your forefathers then
Re: Idanre Hills - An Ancient Civilization On Top Of A Rock by travelwaka: 8:41pm On Jan 29, 2021
Unfortunately I didn't finish school but I pray all your dreams come true
1. I pray your plans for relocation will be fulfilled this time not an Ecowas country but Europe or America
2. Your music will blow
3. You will find love and it will be real
4. I pray your song will blow cos you invested so much into it


It doesn't cost anything to be nice. I've got plugs in different radio stations across south west. But I guess you don't row with bloody illiterates like us. Peace out

[quote author=travelwaka post=98552780]Idanre Hills is one of the most underrated tourist attractions in Nigeria. It is a combination of history. sightseeing, Hiking and culture.
Idanre is a beautiful and gigantic mountain located in Akure, Ondo State. The views will leave you asking for more. The history, the story, the culture are real even though it is an abandoned city. The relics and ruins of this ancient city is still standing as proof of its ancient civilization for all to see.
It is located in a hilly and quiet town. This city is made up of so many mountains surrounding the city.
It should be nicknamed the city of mountains.

No, sir. This is not a town on a rock. From your pictures, this is a town located in a valley surrounded by rock formations.

These are some other attractions at the city.

1. The House of Lorin , lots of things are forbidden here, wearing of clothes is forbidden here, carrying items on the head is forbidden
2. The Judges quarters
3. The landscape
4. The ancient Palace
